      I’m planning on building a magic mirror and then giving it to my girlfriend as a gift, but am having trouble figuring out how it will connect to wifi at her place once I give it to her. Would there be a way to program the Pi so that it already has her Wifi settings and connects automatically on startup? Or would I have to set it up at her house manually? Thanks for any advice!

        @builderman If you know her wifi info you can…if not you’ll have to set it up manually when you get there :)

        SO make some excuse and get her wifi info then put it in …so when you walk in the pi will connect and the mirror will just work ;)

        You’ll be a hero!

            Ok so just to confirm: I just need her network name and password, right? And I could set it up ahead of time?
